    The complete 2024-25 schedule for the Houston Rockets and the NBA will be released this week, according to multiple reports (including Damichael Cole of the Memphis Commercial Appeal).

    Gretchen Sheirr, president of business operations for the Rockets, confirmed the expectation at a Saturday, Aug. 10 community event.

    While the exact day and time has yet to be determined, the rollout strategy in recent years has involved a mid-week release featuring a televised special using one or more of the league’s TV partners. In releasing their complete schedule online, many teams have used clever announcement videos featuring players, coaches, and staff.

    This week’s release will include the entirety of the 82-game regular season. Houston’s four-game preseason schedule, as well as its 2024-25 in-season tournament group competitors, are already known.

    Entering 2024-25, the young and improving Rockets (41-41) are coming off a season in which they led the NBA with the largest annual wins increase (19) from the previous year. Led by the likes of Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun, Fred VanVleet, and head coach Ime Udoka, the goal internally is for Houston to return to the Western Conference playoffs for the first time since the 2019-20 season.
